8 channel ADAT D/A converter?

Ok I have an RMEfireface 800 and a PreSonus digimax 96. Soon I plan on running both to a good board on mixdown. The problem is the PreSonus only has ADAT outs. The RMEhas ADAT in and outs. If I hookup the PreSonus to the rme, on mixdown, won't I only have the channels on the RMEto work with? I want to have 16 channels in and out. Should I sell the PreSonus and just get another rme?

Recording max 8 channels with a low end Dell Laptop?

No plugins or ediiting needed, I plan to transfer recorded tracks to my home PC DAW for editing. I simply want something mobile to record 8 tracks max at 44.1/24bit (for drums, guitar, bass)

Can you get away with 256 Meg, less than 7200rpm harddrive, and 400 FSB? A low end Inspiron 6000 Dell selling now for around $600.

Or am I being too much of a tightwad ? :)

8 channel ADAT io card

Does anyone know of a simple 24 bit 8 channel ADAT i/o PCI card for PC (Win98se)? I'm after something around the two to three hundred Australian dollar mark.
Basically, I have a Mac G4 running Pro Tools / Digi 001 and a PC running Reason 2. The ADAT card will be used to connect 8 channels of Reason from my PC into the 001 on my Mac.

8 channel AES/EBU PCI card. Anybody making this?

I swear up and down that SEKD was making a 8 channel in, 8 channel out
AES/EBU card (I thought I saw something in EM or Mix recently), but I
cannot find it from any manufacturer. 2 AES i/o channel is common,
but with the need for 24 channels of simultaneous inputs on three PCI
slots, it's obviously impractical. Anybody know if there is a card
